I had a simple question relating to a Will and I needed interpretation with 2 clauses in the Will. I’m also an executor of the will which is lodged with Maurice Blackburn. There was not one lawyer or solicitor in the whole organisation who could help me. There were some friendly staff who initially listened to my concerns but I was shuffled from one department to another, until finally I was told that they can’t help with that sort of question. You would think the wills and probate, as well as the contesting a Will department of Maurice Blackburn would have at least one lawyer who had expertise in Will interpretation but they don’t have anyone who can help you if your’e uncertain what the clauses in a will mean. How can they possibly facilitate fair outcomes for anyone if they don’t have the ability or knowledge to answer basic questions?Anyway now I have received a reply to one of the clauses through legal aid which clarifies the whole will, Thankyou legal aid. I didn’t want to contest the Will, I just needed clarification on a couple of clauses in the Will, that’s all. And what about the lawyer who actually scripted the Will, surely he would have known what it meant.
